Shaved Zucchini & Gorgonzola Tart

There is literally nothing easier than throwing something on a sheet of puff pastry when you have guests over at the last minute. I always keep a box in my freezer for those desperate times. In this recipe I’ve used a spread of tangy gorgonzola with shaved zucchini, a hint of sage adds an earthy kick. This little video shows the process of making this super simple tart, I hope you enjoy it!

Recipe

1 sheet of puff pastry, thawed

2 eggs

1 cup (200 grams) gorgonzola cheese, at room temperature

1/4 cup heavy cream

3 tbs fresh sage, finely chopped

1/2 tsp salt + extra for sprinkling

1/2 tsp cracked black pepper

1 medium sized zucchini, shaved into thin strips with a peeler

handful of cherry tomatoes,

extra virgin olive oil

thyme sprigs (optional)

Preheat the oven to 400F/204C. Unfold the puff pastry sheet and if necessary roll out into a rectangle shape. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Spread the cheese mixture over the puff pastry sheet evenly. Gently place a layer of shaved zucchini on top overlapping one another. Place the whole cherry tomatoes scattered on top of the zucchini and drizzle with the olive oil. Top with a few thyme sprigs.
